Oteri Construction Inc

Framingham's Oteri Construction has piled up 25 five-star Google reviews since March alone, and several come from an unusual source: interior designers who work with contractors for a living. One writes that Oteri "cleared her bar" for flawless execution; another calls the team "one of my favorites" among the contractors she's used. Led by President Edward Oteri, with Nicolas Oteri as director of operations, the firm works throughout Massachusetts and Cape Cod — it names Cambridge, Somerville, Watertown, Wellesley, Sherborn and Southborough among its coverage towns — and describes itself as a high-end kitchen and bath remodeler that also handles additions and new home construction. That focus shows up in the specifics customers keep volunteering. A 2026 review describes a master bathroom built around a custom walk-in shower finished in Italian tile; another calls out a large outdoor deck built in ipe hardwood with an invisible fastener system so no nails or screws show, the kind of detail a reviewer only notices by watching the crew work. On Houzz, where the firm holds 4.9 stars from 10 reviews reaching back to 2017, the history runs deeper: in a 2017 review, a homeowner described Ed and his crew removing a chimney and structural wall for a kitchen renovation inside an 1841 Italianate house, and a 2025 review from a three-family-house owner said he's called on Oteri "on multiple occasions" since 2011. Local news reported the firm handling a second-floor commercial renovation for a Watertown dance studio in 2018, and Houzz credits it with a 2014 Newton Preservation Award for a historic renovation and condo conversion, plus recognition from NARI, the National Association of the Remodeling Industry. Houzz also lists a Massachusetts home contractor registration (No. 136032) for the company — that's the directory's own listing, not an independently verified credential, so it's worth confirming with the state directly before signing. Past that, there's no negative review to weigh: none turns up across ten years, 40-plus reviews, and three separate platforms. This is a fit for a serious kitchen, bath, or whole-house project rather than a quick fix — the reviews are almost entirely full remodels, additions, and custom builds, several of them large and multi-room. Confirm the license and current lead times, and a decade of specific, five-star reviews from designers and homeowners alike makes the rest of the case.
